This is our Utah-Arizona adventure extravaganza with some of our favorite people.

  • Michele: Our beautiful aunt. She is an amazing cook, crafter, and mom to four gorgeous little boys. 
  • Dave: Uncle Dave! He is very musically talented, he can put up with chick flick’s (if you ask me, that is impressive), and an amazing dad to his four boys! Oh, and his favorite food is watermelon turkey 😉
  • Tay Tay: The cutest 6 year old out there! All I can say is girls will be chasing after him. He is such a little sweetheart.
  • Christy: SO STINKIN’ CUTE! He loves TT with all his heart, tears were shed when TT left, such a sweet boy! And he can sing his little heart out!
